There seems to be something wrong about the way certain "really clever" 
people think. As if they think of complex solutions before investigating 
simple ones.

I think devising a solution to a problem is basically a search of the 
problem-space. And that space is pretty huge, so it must be some kind of 
heuristic search. I hypothesize that certain people just have a slightly 
faulty heuristic. ;-)
